What Happens During Your JCB Digger Day Out?

At Avalanche, we give you all the tools to tame this iconic construction beast! 

With one-to-one tuition from our friendly instructors, clear guidance and lots of encouragement. You also get plenty of time at the wheel to hone your skills.

Once you’ve settled into the driver’s seat, the fun begins.

As you get to grips with the controls, you will take on various tasks including digging holes, moving rubble and most importantly…having fun!

You’ll learn how to:

• Operate the JCB 3CX digger like a seasoned operator
• Master the control confidently
• Unearth new challenges

Driving a JCB lets you experience:

• Digging holes like a pro
• Moving rubble
• Testing your coordination and skills
• Having limitless fun!

You don’t need any prior experience. Just a willingness to try something challenging.

VINTAGE JCB 3CX FACTS

Let’s talk about our pride and joy, the legendary JCB 3CX.

• The 3CX can reach a top speed of 22.8 MPH. That’s only slightly behind Usain Bolt’s top speeds of 27.3 MPH
• This mighty machine can lift a WHOPPING 2,882KG. That means it is strong enough to lift 36 Avalanche employees at once (don’t worry, we won’t test that one)
• The 3CX weighs in at 7,800KG. That’s over 40 Quad Bikes combined!

The JCB 3CX means serious business. This beast of a machine gives you the right feel when you’re behind the controls.

Experience JCB Driving Like a Professional

A JCB driving experience is more than driving this beast of a machine (though there’s plenty of that). It’s also about experiencing JCB driving using techniques that professional operators follow.

Our experienced instructors will guide you to:

• Dig in a smooth and controlled manner
• Handle the bucket with precision
• Operate the machine safely
• Coordinate multiple controls

At the end of the session and by following the right guidance, you’ll learn to operate the JCB 3CX with complete confidence.

Individual Thrill-Seekers

Learn real skills under the guidance of our expert instructors and take on digging challenges at your own pace. Enjoy a completely unique, hands-on experience at the end of the JCB digger experience day.

Stag & Hen Do’s

Skip the predictable pub crawl and bar night for a proper, hands-on celebration that also doubles up as a challenge. Line up your group and take turns taming this raw construction beast while cheering each other on. Non-stop laughter guaranteed!

A JCB digger days out is completely different from the usual stag/hen do ideas, which makes it great for big groups, capturing moments, and even better stories with bragging rights. A JCB driving experience will make sure your event stands out.

Corporate Teambuilding

Let your teams experience excitement beyond empty email inboxes.  Our JCB digger experience days are just right if your teams want something different and hands-on.

It works as a great icebreaker, breaking down barriers between teams and helping build confidence in an unfamiliar environment. Add in a bit of friendly competition, and you’ve got a team day out that’s memorable, energetic, and genuinely fun. 

Think of it as a wholesome team development experience, but with a lot more horsepower!
